Ap calculus. I'm dying already.

<p>I'm taking AB, any tips or good links to websites that helped you guys???</p>

<p>our teacher doesn't really help much, and reading the book isn't easy- they kinda assume you know everything. FYI, im using "calculus - larson edwards" 9th edition.</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Khan academy is a very beneficial resource.</p>

<p>^^^ he is correct. Khan Academy was featured on 60 minutes (love that show)</p>

<p>Calculus AB for me was really easy and seemed quite straight forward. I am in BC this year. I know a lot of people struggled with AB last year and I never understood why. It is simply just one concept split into two categories which are opposites(differentiating and integrating) if you need specific help let me know</p>

<p>I have no answers for you but I in AP Calc AB too this year (every other day) . Everything is SO straightforward right now, we did some limits (questions that take hardly five seconds , it’s probably the most basic lint can get). I know it’ll get harder, hopefully I can pull through!</p>

<p>Awww I use that book, as well. I agree about the book. The firs time I read it I was like “the eff are teu talking about??” but you just need to get accustomed to reading the way they say it…but anywho on topic. </p>

<p>I’m in BC (didn’t take AB) so I’m technically in the same boat as you. Do you talk a lot in the class. Are you vocal. Sometimes sitting back and observing and speaking up only when you don’t understand something goes very far. I learned that within the first week of Calc. </p>

<p>Use Khan Academy and the APCalc guy in YouTube. He helped loads when I didn’t understand something about limits. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Watch PatrickJmt’s videos. Everytime I do not understand something I go and watch them on youtube.</p>

<p>I took AP calculus BC and all you really need to do is memorize formulas and Khan academy is very helpful (:</p>

<p>I’m in bc calc. I think we have to same book. We just finished limits, squeeze theorem, etc.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Only limits? Oh well, you didn’t start the same time as me. We did limits for a week and now we’re in derivatives. Implicit functions, if I can remember the name correctly. Used the book last night for homework…understood most of it…until I fell asleep :/</p>

<p>yeah we started school on 27th. Real calculus starts Monday. We’re just reviewing basic concepts from pre cal, and learning some new theorems.</p>

<p>yeah thanks guys for all the responses now.
ill try to keep running and pushing myself- it’s rather depressing when you get crappy test/quiz grades back.</p>
